You may be interested to know that I've thrown away the build mechanism
completely, due to being a horrible maze of twisty, turny recursive makef=
iles,
shell scripts, and stuff hidden inside .a files, all different. After I h=
ad to
grep the whole source tree trying to find where a particular command line=
option came from, and failed to find it, I decided enough was enough.
It now uses a rather nice build tool called Prime Mover wot I wrote (plug=

plug), and works very nicely, if I say so myself. I believe the prereleas=
e ACK
on the website is the only compiler toolchain in existence that will allo=
w you
to generate floppy boot images from Modula-2.

Ta, I shall take a look. They all seem a little different, though; is the=

standard for such things?
